Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    All affordable, tested and ready-to-use supplies to make invitation envelopes with liners are available at http://www.formal-invitations.com/envelopes.html

  2. Step 2

    Center upside-down liner on envelope, just below glue line.

  3. Step 3

    Fold liner down at envelope crease.

  4. Step 4

    Fold back liner so right side is facing up and line up liner crease with envelope crease.

  5. Step 5

    Fold down liner and use glue stick to apply glue to the top of the liner.

  6. Step 6

    Close envelope and press to adhere.

  7. Step 7

    We recommend handwriting the addresses on envelopes for a personal touch, instead of computer labels or printing. Two envelopes are not longer necessary, but if they are being used, the smaller inner envelope is addressed with only the guest(s) name, such as “Mr. and Mrs. Grant Thompson” “Miss Johnson and Guest”. The outer envelope is addressed with the guest’s full name and address. Avoid using abbreviations for streets and cities. The return address should be on the back flap of the outer envelope.
    When assembling your invitations, the reply card with stamped envelope or reply postcard should be on top, then the reception card, then the invitation. If two envelopes are used, all of the enclosures are placed in the inner envelope face up. The inner envelope is placed (unsealed) in the outer envelope, with the flap facing back so that your guest sees his or her name upon opening. Use an envelope seal for an elegant touch.

  8. Step 8

    Before stamping, bring a sample of the completed invitations to the post office to determine the correct postage. Invitations should be mailed four weeks before your wedding or six weeks for out-of-town guests or if your wedding falls near a holiday.
